Vector Portraits

My series of digital vector illustrations: stylized portraits created in Adobe Illustrator. The series includes portraits of model Gemma Ward, the characters from The Chronicles of Narnia, iconic film and TV characters, Elvis Presley, and portraits of people from my life.

I started this series to explore shape, composition, and light, pushing photo references into something more graphic, stylized, personal, and infinitely scalable. Some pieces are personal studies, some are gifts, and a few (including the Elvis portraits) began as commissions.

The Chronicles of Narnia

Vector portraits of the four Pevensie children from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe: Edmund, Peter, Susan, and Lucy. Each individual portrait is framed in the shape of the King of Beasts – Aslan (the Lion), the creator and one true king of the world of Narnia.
